Extreme Makeover Writing

This book is primarily designed for teachers of writing grades five through nine.  The idea came from the hit television reality show “Extreme Makeover Home Edition”.  Viewers watch as builders tear down a run-down house and rebuild it so that it becomes someone’s dream home.  So, why not take this concept and transfer it to the world of teaching kids how to revise?  Extreme Makeover Writing Edition takes a process approach to revision and is divided into eight steps.  After teaching mini-lessons, students are divided into “design teams” where they work collaboratively to “tear down” a rough draft and “rebuild” it with the tools of revision.
